Ancient Lights (The Watchman Diaries)

When an earthquake rocks the Afro-Syrian fault line running along the Dead Sea, a mysterious cave is opened. In that cave a young Bedouin makes a monumental discovery--a sealed urn containing multicolored gems that are the Urim and Thummim, the ancient revelatory lights of Israel used by the High Priest to determine the will of God.

You will quickly be thrust into the conspiracy and subplots that develop as a result of this amazing discovery. No one who knows about the "gems" is safe. Everyone is fighting to get their hands on the Ancient Lights, including Krasnoff, the Chief Inspector of the Israeli Antiquities Authority, his partner, Nathan Cohen, and the evil Kavidas and Stein, who are the masterminds behind Masterlink, a global financial network destined to be the vehicle that launches a cashless society.

The final showdown is fact-paced and suspense-filled as both sides call on supernatural powers in order to gain control of the Ancient Lights.
